What is the best home remedy for itchy facial pimples? i just started having it when i was 21 until now that i am 23

Acne Home Remedies: Pimples have been known to positively react to the addition of Niacin (100 mg; three times per day), and vitamin a to a diet. 400 mg of vitamin e taken once per day also works wonders. You may also take 50mg of therapeutic zinc in tablet or capsule form (three times per day).

See a dermatologist: No vitamin or zinc will help your face. There are effective treatments. You may start with benzoyl peroxide- get a generic, not Proactiv (expensive!). It may be drying and it can bleach colors out of fabrics: be careful. Acne is not your fault. It is related to genetics, hormones, and sometimes meds.
